Better on a Barstool

Yeah, she got gone, past moving on

No, she ain't coming back

That what you are ain't what you were

And you gotta face the facts

That taking it hard in your easy chair

Ain't doin' what you want

Reach down and grab them boot straps

And head to a honky tonk

When that breaking starts to aching

You can feel it in your bones

There's a neon light a-waiting

With a shoulder to lean on

You got the nerve to forget her

Well, bartender's got the tools

Hey, hearts heal better on a barstool

There's something 'bout that rowdy crowd

And a jukebox full of songs

Without a doubt, yeah, we'll drown out

Her memory 'fore too long

Yeah, that little buzz that the whiskey does

Will wash away the pain

Yeah, that cute brunette that you just met

Will blow out that old flame

And that breaking starts to aching

You can feel it in your bones

There's a neon light a-waiting

With a shoulder to lean on

You got the nerve to forget her

Well, bartender's got the tools

Hey, hearts heal better on a barstool, hey

A little shoot her down, little smoke her out

Yeah, round for round, let me tell you now

When that breaking starts to aching

You can feel it in your bones

There's a neon light a-waiting

With a shoulder to lean on

You got the need to forget her

Well, bartender's got the tools

Yeah, hearts heal better on a barstool

Yeah, that method's done been tested, hey

Y'all, I'm living proof

That hearts heal better on a barstool

Yeah, hearts heal better on a barstool

Yeah, they do, boy
